Hackers are irrationally anti-corporation. This is where the nonsensical AGPL came from, too.

- noosphr 8d agoThe AGPL didn't go far enough because it didn't limit freedom 0 to natural born humans. In the 00s/10s it was corporations. Today it's AI. If it has no soul to save and no body to torture it deserves no rights.
- hardbass 8d agoShow me where this "soul" is. Never seen one yet.
- card_zero 8d agoI don't believe in souls. But I believe in metaphorical souls, and an LLM ain't got one.
- hardbass 8d agoWhats a metaphorical soul?
- card_zero 8d agoMostly personality I think. Individuality, opinions, purpose, things like that. Morality, except they have a kind of ankle-deep phony morality beaten into them but it's not like they're idealists with visions they strive toward. (Heading out right now to buy a CD player, so AFK for a bit, excuse me.)

- sneak 8d agoCorporations cannot act. All corporation actions are performed by natural born humans. All corporations are ultimately owned by natural born humans. All corporation actions serve to benefit natural born humans. All corporations are created and destroyed by natural born humans. This idea that corporate personhood is some perverse idea is silly. Corporations are just people acting in groups for economic benefit. Everything they do is done by members of those groups (or people they hire). Similarly, AI is an inanimate tool, like a keyboard.
